DESCRIPTION |
| | V/A Keiki / Bee and Flower Label : Cheap Satanism Records Year : 2011 Format : 10in Style : Rock Availability : In stock
Price : 6.66 € - BUY
| | | | Description : | Bee and Flower – a New York and Berlin-based band led by venomous Dana Schechter who, among others, has collaborated with Angels Of Light and American Music Club- will be on the first split 10in vinyl with Keiki, who is currently finishing recording Popcorn From The Grave, their third album (and second on Cheap Satanism Records).
On this record Keiki delivers two songs that could surprise bitter-sweet 'satanic pop' regulars with its disquieting guitars and theremin that build up tension. The singing flirts with spoken word and if the twisted lyrics were not here to remind us that we were on planet Keiki, their sound could be described as 'Haunted rock'. Recorded with Pete Simonelli, the soulful singer of Enablers from San Francisco, Full Body Wolf portrays the mysterious exchange between Dominique Van Cappellen-Waldock and Pete Simonelli who for the occasion plays at being a taxidermist whereas A Woman's Love pays tribute to Bloody Pit Of Horror, an old Italian gothic film that has become cult ever since. Some will eventually remember that Keiki had produced a videoclip for the song Ironing Man (on their previous album) based on some extracts from film.
'Haunted rock' has always fitted Bee And Flower's sound as their cinematic and tortured music could be the perfect sound decor of a ghostly scenery. With Jackson and You’re not the Sun, Bee And Flower unveils two songs from the forthcoming album Suspension which will be without a doubt their most focused and direct album to date. Recorded by Martin Bisi in New York (The Dresden Dolls, Angels Of Light and Serena Maneesh among others) and Ingo Krauss in Berlin (Crime & the City Solution, Tindersticks), it redefines the band’s skillfulness at blending agonizing sweetness and delicate ferocity well-illustrated by the two tracks selected for the vinyl. The catchy yet darkly melancholic melody from the first song contrasts with the bewitching and brilliant monotonous chant of the second.
